jake, if your having to ask about ppe for chainsaw use, you might consider doing a basic chainsaw course before you become another statistic
a simple cross cutting course could save your life.
I would try & do a basic chainsaw operations course CS30 & 31 covers saw maintenance, felling small trees, snedding & crosscutting.
Getting on a course is money well spent, a chainsaw will bite any PPE is supposed to be the last line of defence not a substitute for knowing what your doing.
I was in a hire shop months ago and a bloke brought a saw in saying "this chainsaw you sold me, the blade's gone floppy, can you fix it"
That's a candidate for a Darwin Award
